I've met a couple of you guys just from seeing people with e30's and going up and talking and everyone's like...you on max?

Anyways, I just got a tired e30 which needs some TLC. I don't think the car has had new suspension parts since it rolled off the factory so its severely due. The steerings pritty sloppy with a dead spot in the middle.

I guess my quesion is...where do you guys get parts for these cars? I know its not going to be cheap cheap but i would like to get a deal. For a suspension fix up i'd be getting new bushings all round, control arms, tie rod ends. Basically new rubber.

Also,would you guys recommend poly bushings and any particular area or m3 offset ones for better higher caster? I know thats jumping into higher prices but if its going to last longer and be cheaper in the long run then im down.

+1 on auto parts way.... Id stay away from urethane bushings unless you've got flat roads... the harshness tends to increase with alot of urethane bushings. I did go with them for the control arms though with the m3 offset.... very good upgrade.

I know it might not be at the top of everyone's list, but my local Partsource (Whitby) is always helpul and friendly. I usually use it or parts i want to purchase new. Also parts cars and junk yards for certain things (but of course not suspension components!). I picked up my steering rack from this website, always look over the classifieds...
